Evil Jake is a New York City band that crafts a melodic style of hard rock. Made up of guitarist Mike Jacobs, drummer Paul Campanella, and bassist Aaron Trubic, the band made their name in their native city before putting together their debut CD, Music to Strip By in 2001. Two years later, the power-pop trio redesigned their catchy sound with some punk edges for the release of Be My Ex-Girlfriend. ~ Bradley Torreano
